The sun and the moon And the stars and the sky The laughter that bursts In the birds that chirp before flying The water that brings A saviour to life After looking down At the flowers now blooming The essence, the ingress Seeps through the room’s open window The day sees the sun Shining brightly […]

I think of thought…
What do I think of thought Or can I only feel A touch as tender as the breeze Or hard as bovine – ‘fore the veal What do I think of thought What does she think of me As hard to the touch as a scab Or soft and supple Alike thee Bereft of kindness […]
Travails with a conscience
It came from far away And nestled nearer home All the while beside me From birth to when I’d grown My travails with a conscience lay Still active – I had known It came from far away – Perched by my very own And every time I saw her She looked peaceful – Like the […]
Loss
Loss Oh, God, What does it mean? Am I alone Yet near, beside The one I thought I’d have forever – Experiences Shared together Now you’ve left For better scenes Still nothing, no-one Comes between The rose and orchard We grew when The garden bloomed – The scent would spend It’s time in what Became […]

You might want to start with a few offerings from yours truly. For your reading pleasure (or pain), I list them here. Go on, knock yourself out. Or better still, enjoy […]

Cosmofunnel V – thoughts
What is it they say? It never rains in Southern California? Well, I’m here to tell you the same’s true of the Gold Coast, on the south-east coast of Queensland. They say it’s beautiful one day, perfect the next. I think it’s just bone-dry Except that the farmers end up in drought as 80% of […]
